configuration of Vanadium is 1s2 2s2p6 3s2p6d3 4s2. Vanadium also forms different isotopes. Natural Vanadium is a mixture of the two stable isotopes‚ Vanadium-50 (0.24%) and Vanadium-51 (99.76%). Vanadium-50 is somewhat radioactive‚ with a half life exceeding 3.9 x 1017 years. Vanadium has other radioactive isotopes‚ but they have half-lives shorter than an hour. They range from Vanadium-40 to Vanadium-65‚ and none of these isotopes are found in nature. There are also different ions of Vanadium that normally

dangerous to living tissue‚ it can course cancer if exposure is continuous or for a long period of time. Within medical uses the patient is injected with the radioactive isotope‚ it is important that the dose is minimal and that low levels of radiation are emitted and therefore not remain long in the body. The radioactive isotope needs to have a very short-half life and is used to irradiate and kill cancer cells within the patient. The rays emitted have to be carefully targeted so that it doesn’t

mass cannot be either created or destroyed‚ it can be converted into something else. So the mass “lost” in the reaction can be put into the equation where E= mc^2 to measure how much energy is being produced in the reaction. Since the mass of the isotope is partially lost as a particle of a neutron which gives rise to the energy generated according to the formula of

In the periodic table‚ 80% of the elements are metals. Of the metals‚ aluminum is the most abundant in the earth’s crust. Aluminum is concentrated in the outer 10 miles (16 km) of the Earth’s crust‚ of which it constitutes about 8% by weight; it is exceeded in amount only by oxygen and silicon.1 This metal can be found in group 13 (formerly group IIIA) in the periodic table‚ known as the boron group elements. It is represented by the chemical symbol Al‚ and has an atomic number of 13. Aluminum
